An Orthodox Approach to Reproductive Technologies

We at CBHD have been addressing reproductive technologies throughout our history. In 2017, at our 24th annual conference, we held a colloquium on Catholic, Protestant, & Orthodox Approaches to Reproductive Technologies. Three speakers walked through their convictional approach to these issues, each in turn.  This episode of the bioethics podcast is the third of three that carries these talks.  In the first episode, Marie T. Hilliard, JCL, PhD, RN, of the National Catholic Bioethics Center. presented A Catholic Approach to Reproductive Technologies.  The second episode had Scott B. Rae, PhD, of Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, with Protestant Approaches to Reproductive Technologies.  The series concludes in this episode with Gayle E. Woloschak, PhD, on an Orthodox approach.  Dr. Woloschak is Professor of Radiation Oncology, Radiology, and Cell and Molecular Biology in the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University.  She is also adjunct faculty at Lutheran School of Theology, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, and St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Seminary.
